ZZ980G: Physical Module Algorithms for InfoSphere MDM V11

Overview

                           

Recommended duration: 2 Days

Skill level: Intermediate

                                                                           

Do you want to find duplicates and perfect a search algorithm for your InfoSphere MDM Physical implementation?


Then this course is designed for you. The InfoSphere MDM V11 Physical Module Algorithms course prepares you to work with and customize the algorithm configurations deployed to the InfoSphere MDM Probabilistic Matching Engine (PME) for the Physical MDM implementation. The PME is the heart of all Matching and Searching for entities (Person, Organization, etc) that exist in InfoSphere MDM.

This course has a heavy emphasis on the exercises, where you will implement the customization discussed in the course to perform matching and searching on fields not provided by the default implementation.


At the end of this course it is expected you will feel comfortable customizing an algorithm for the PME for a Physical implementation.
